Oh boy. And, of course, huzzah. The kids are getting older, after all. In a few years the eldest is gonna be in high school — and isn’t that terrifying, hey? Trust me, it’s terrifying.
On the bright side: they’re old enough for more expansive chores this summer. Oh, my, yes, they are. And plenty of time at the pool too, to be sure.
School’s still in session there? When does their fall start? Ours was out a month ago, but it resumes the last week of August.
School starts up here again after Labor Day.
